I have them on mine as well, I love them. Then again I go for the whole factory "Sleeper" look

i had them, didnt like them, they never were clean, no matter what i did... however... if you take them off, power wash them... and pick up silver paint from like autozone, theyll look brand new... buddy has some on his car(actually 2 of my old ones) and they look brand new, id rock them...

however i like what i have on the car now better... but my DRs are on turbines, and i have 2 more incase skinnies get too bad in the winter

Don't like mine one bit. When I get the chance i'm going to get some 17" ponies, put slicks on the turbinesand use them for the strip

Eh, I guess I'm not as up on my Fox terminology as I thought. I always assumed that "Turbines" were the '93 Cobra wheels, since they literally looked like turbine blades to me:
